Hi, if your looking for the most diverse knowledge, of literally every single reptiles/amphibian that has ever bred in the UK then you should check out the British Herping Wiki. British Herping Wiki This is my website which I started late spring time 2012 with a goal to find out every species that is breeding in the UK and where. I've done hours of research to find them all out and make sure my facts are correct.
Well I think you'll find I've done a good job. We have around 80 species on there. But if you know of any others PLEASE feal free to add a page about it. Any1 can edit, just create an account. And you can use information from wikipedia about the species. So far we haven't gotten much support as I havn't really spead it about as I was not finished, but now that I am I'm hoping to let lots of people know of my website, so please tell as many people about it as you can. Bare in mind I'm only 13.:bowl::happy::ha::D

Interesting site, I edited the Xenopus section.

The UK Non-native Species Secretariat is the official authority for recording, monitoring and reprting non-native species. It is by far the best source of information on non-native species. It is directly linked to the NBN Gateway (the biological recording organisation where all sighings of native and non native species is recorded by surveyors).

It is continually updated and is current and accurate.

Not trying to put people off your wiki but this is the main source of all non-native information on the web.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
